I cannot believe it is the end of the semester already... it is a cliche saying, but time flew by! While the past semester was challenging and stressful, I am more motivated than ever to pursue a career in education. This semester I have learned invaluable methods, tools, and resources that I can incorporate in my future classrooms. I feel that these skills are what will seperate me (and my fellow M.Ed. classmates) apart from other novice teachers entering the work field. I am also excited to announce that I got my student teaching placement at N.E. middle school in Minneapolis... I could not be more thrilled!!!
I am not sure where the next year will lead me, but I am so excited to find out! I have decided that New York would be faaaar to expensive to live in alone (I'm poor now, I don't want to still be poor after I finish grad school!), so instead I am thinking of moving to Chicago! I feel it is the perfect mixture between urban and midwest living and would still allow me to pursue my dream of working in an inner-city school district and working to close the achievement gap.
While I am sad that the semester is coming to a close... I am so excited for a break!!! I hope everyone enjoys their winter breaks and comes back ready for student teaching!
